It won't get much worse, but this can happen around the D-rings when the leather has a heavy coating.

POCHETTE MÉTIS 2018-
Parts of the canvas is peeling in different areas a along the edge and part of the glazing is lifting ever so lightly on the front flap. Do you think it needs to be brought in? What will happen if I do?

Hey guys I just got a new NeoNoe and I noticed on the inside of my bag near the base there’s a small bit of canvas that isn’t glued down too well. I don’t care too much since it’s on the inside but I wonder if this would cause issues down the road.

Just picked up my NF empreinte. She's a beauty, but I noticed some imperfections (?) in the leather. In some of the embossing, some strips of leather seem to be sticking out/not printed. The SA told me if she ordered me another bag, it would probably have the same or another imperfection. Also the embossing on the pouch looks a bit deeper than on the bag. What do you think of it?
It has no date code (made in spain stamp is there) so it probably has a microchip. I tried to find it using 2 NFC app but was not able to locate it. I traced the whole bag with my phone.
Furthermore, the SA adviced against synging the sides because the leater might crease? She didn't seem to know a whole lot about the bag though, so I'm not sure.

I hope you all can help me with your opinions on my bag. I have always been disappointed with the sides of the bag (piping). However now I have noticed that the patches seem to have color bleeding and upon closer inspection I noticed that two of my chads (not sure right term) are crooked. Is this worth taking in to have it looked at?

- the plastic tube in the piping is broken
- the white on the stamps has a pinkish hue (although the overall print quality is the usual otherwise)
- and the handle tabs are also off by a few degrees
this is not OK. I'd definitely recommend you to bring it in.
LV canvas is supposed to last for eternity so this isn't wear and tear. I would bring it in for assessment asap. My bum bag is beat up and doesn't have cracks. Date code is 2019.
PMs produced before 2019 have a long record of defects. Take it in. not sure if they are replacing these or offering to repair. I went through five PMs before giving up and getting an empreinte one.
It doesn't look right. I'd be annoyed even if it cost me $50.
Thank you both so much for responses and advice. As an update - I returned & have re-ordered another. Fingers crossed
Update: I reordered another alma bb via client services and she is much better, no bubbling on the lining. There's some wrinkling on the leather handles but I am OK with that. Don't want to return it again and get something worse!
Here she is with my small ring agenda ❤️
Why is an empreinte one better or have less issues compared to the canvas one?
the canvas PM flap is prone to cracking because of the design. I ad this issue with the mono and reverse mono PM. Empreinte is more forgiving. I've had my noir one almost 3 years now, use it all the time and no issues.
